Rearview mirror

Abstract

An aspect of the present invention provides a rearview mirror designed to enhance assembly workability. When assembling a mirror unit of the rearview mirror, a lamp unit is dropped in an opening provided on a mirror holder from an inner surface side of the mirror holder in a condition in which side object detection symbols face upward. Thereafter, a circumferential edge of a reflective mirror is fitted into a recess-shaped fit portion of the mirror holder. The lamp unit is thus simply clamped and fixed between a lamp unit receiving portion (tab portions) and the reflective mirror. When the lamp unit is assembled in the mirror unit, therefore, adhesive is not used, so that workability is extremely good.

1 . A rearview mirror comprising:
 a mirror unit including a reflective mirror and a mirror holder disposed on the reflective mirror so as to cover a back surface of the reflective mirror in an inner surface side thereof; and   a lamp unit including a light emitting section inside a housing, wherein   the mirror holder includes an opening portion in which the housing of the lamp unit is dropped from the inner surface side of the mirror holder and a lamp unit receiving portion disposed near the opening portion;   the lamp unit is clamped and fixed between the lamp unit receiving portion and the reflective mirror; and   the lamp unit includes a cushion portion disposed on a light exit side, the cushion portion having a front surface pressed against the back surface of the reflective mirror by the mirror holder and the front surface of the cushion portion not provided with adhesive.   
     
     
         2 . The rearview mirror according to  claim 1 , wherein the reflective mirror includes a half mirror portion, formed thereon, for transmitting light from the lamp unit, the lamp unit includes a display portion through which light transmits, and the cushion portion is disposed so as to surround the display portion and is pressed against a back surface of the half mirror portion of the reflective mirror. 
     
     
         3 . The rearview mirror according to  claim 1 , wherein the lamp unit receiving portion on which a flange portion formed on the lamp unit touches corresponds to an edge portion of the opening portion. 
     
     
         4 . The rearview mirror according to  claim 1 , wherein the lamp unit receiving portion for supporting a bottom surface of the housing of the lamp unit protrudes toward an outer surface side of the mirror holder as to be able to view from the opening portion.
